Founded in 1947 as the Norman Scott Company, Inc. In Tolerance is a unique growing business. Its specialty is delivering precision-machined parts. The company, located in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, was founded after numerous requests (dating back in the mid 1930's) of Arthur Collins (founder of Collins Radio). In 1986 Robert D. Becker purchased the company from John Scott. The company began an active marketing culture & grew several-fold. During this time the company also expanded its manufacturing area & moved into its third location. The company utilizes its own process control software (Automated Quote Inventory Scheduling System - AQUISS) it has written and developed with suggestions from employees over the past twenty years. Today, In Tolerance is still a prime supplier to Rockwell Collins; however, the company's diverse customer base includes clients throughout the United States, Mexico & Puerto Rico who represent leading medical, aerospace, communications, food processing, & military industries.
